Thanks fellas,
Friday is OK, Niklas. I am not in a hurry.

Wes, If you think Johannesburg is beautiful, you haven't seen anything. I think it is the worst part of the country. If you ever come here again, you let me know. I will take you on a hunting trip, or something. (If you hunt?).

Thanks Niklas, I appreciate your help.
I have a small (hand operated) hidraulic pipe bender, so I would not need "Hulk arms" to bend the pipes. :lol:
For the foot I thought that I can use a piece of flat iron that fits in the bracket and just give it a 90 degree bend on top and weld the pipe to it ...

Thanks Wes.
Can you please give me the dimensions of the Top Bow Assembly (pipe work) also? I will have to make them. It is too big to import from Midwest.

The last three pictures (rear seat support) do not show on you post. Can you please email them?

Thank I appreciate your help.
